Ohio Cyclosporiasis Outbreak Alert | Cincinnati News

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

Ohio’s grappling with a major cyclosporiasis outbreak—over 2,500 cases reported as of July 23—with the CDC sending investigators to trace possible contamination links to lettuce. While state numbers soar, Hamilton County reports far fewer, citing reporting delays and uncounted cases. Caused by a parasite spread through tainted food or water, the illness can linger for weeks and is treatable with antibiotics—though often clears up on its own in healthy folks. Prevention is key: wash all produce thoroughly and handle food safely to dodge this nasty bug.
